Where to get Fabric for the Twin Made Workshop that you are attending!

Woo, you have booked yourself on to a Twin Made workshop and you may need to get fabric. Here are some places to take a look:

For Fabric Shops: Try Cardiff Market, Hobby Craft, The Pumping Station or IKEA. Sometimes Recreate Scrap Store has suitable fabric in stock

On-line:

Ikea have a Re-Shop and Re-Use section on their website which sometimes has suitable fabric. 

Fabric Land https://www.fabricland.co.uk/

https://brunswickmills.co.uk - Run + Fly Supplier

Minerva https://www.minerva.com/ - check postage time

https://www.fabricgiant.com - Printed Cord

https://fabrikate1.co.uk - Local Seller

I try and use as much unwanted fabric as possible. Turning tea Towels into shirts and leftover cord into jackets!

After each Twin made workshop you will keep hold of your pattern and have a guide so you can make lots more.

Coming up at Twin Made this May, June and July

How to join a Granny Square

So, you have a huge pile of Granny Squares and you want to make something amazing. Here is a super easy, neat and simple way to join your Granny squares together.

Like most crafts there are loads of ways to do this but this is my go to way as you work into the corners and gaps making it simple to see where you are putting your hook.

Crocheting the squares together:

Place two squares right side together.

SS through both corner gaps, *Ch3, SC into first gaps* repeat * - * until corners, SS through the corners. Fasten off.
